Quartz heaters consists of a helically wound resistance coil encased in a pure silica fused tube. Once the coil is encased in the tube, then the tube is been enclosed by means of specially designed ceramic insulated caps, which are securely fastened with high temperature cement providing excellent support to the power connecting terminals of the quartz tube.

Quartz Heaters are generally designed to be used in horizontal position only.
These quartz Heaters are available in various diameters like 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 19mm etc with variation in lengths from 300mm to1500mm.

Modules of quartz heaters are also available in which a resistance wire is enclosed in a small diameter quartz tube running parallel to each other and mounted in a special housing. The two sizes are designed to be installed in same dimensional spacing as ceramic infra red elements.
Quartz infra red half modules are available in different wattages from 125 Watts to 650 Watts. and full modules are available from 250 Watts to 1000Watts.

Care should be taken not to over torque the screw and nut terminal posts as breakage of the internal heater connections may occur. Also connections to the heater should be made with high temperature wire.
As with any electrically heated product, the proper application of heater and temperature control is the most important factor in optimum performance, efficiency and longevity i.e. longer life. No two systems are alike It is extremely important that attention has been given to the total product or system design as well as operating environment.
